refueling station
Where tanks fill
A refueling station is a place where vehicles replenish their fuel supply.
For most drivers, this means a gas station.
The term appears more often in contexts involving aircraft, spacecraft, or alternative fuels: The electric vehicle charging network needs more refueling stations along rural highways.
Military usage includes mobile or temporary facilities for combat vehicles.
